I take to mean what I call a 'wiper pivot' ..
the shaft that turns, in a bushing/mount affair, that the wiper arm
bolts to.

I wouldn't look online myself though.
If the poster does not find one I can supply one , a good used original
one .
The part that is secured into the body with a large nut. ( hidden under
a plastic cap ) and has the shaft sticking through it.
